thanks. Check my Post-Rocky stuff as well (if you can). Better start with page 2 of the KROBAK thread, just to begin with latest works...

he already called me twice and still bombs my e-mail, but I delete all this spam like "I'm your fan, Igor, I want to sing in this project", u know...

Thanks for noticing - I'm very proud of my drumming (though it's made on PC), I use to be a drummer before taking seriously on guitar, so I still want to buy a REAL drumkit, not the virtual one . Daney Carey, Bill Bruford, Woitek from COLLAGE and Roberto Leoni from THE WATCH are my inspiration sources in drumming

Holy shit man, no wonder I couldn't figure it out! Those meters are much more complicated than anything Tool have ever done by my knowledge. I'm also starting to like this song more and more. I really hope you can find a vocalist/lyricist (and a fitting one too - don't accept an offer from James LaBrie please Wink), because then it would be totally awesome!!!

^ thanks for the feedback!

It begins with this phrase (11/16 - 13/16 - 14/16(or 7/8) - 16/16(4/4)) played 4 times and then it goes into another one (7/8 - 7/8 - 3/8 - 3/8 - 7/8), which is verse. Then 1 chorus follows (6/8 - 6/8 - 6/8 - 2/8 = 10/4). Then again verse and chorus 2(6/8 - 6/8 + riff from the beginning, 11/16 - 16/16(4/4)).
Then we have solo in 4/4 ...how did this crappy signature crept in...dunno...
Then chorus 3 - abovementioned "I the one..." (6/8 - 6/8 - 6/8 - 2/16 - 4/4...played 4 times), then chorus 2 and coda = intro.

Pretty simple




No really, I like this track and I adore to play it (with my PC playing recorded rhythm-section)...sheer adrenaline!!!

^now you've promised!!!

I already have 50-60 minutes of material of that kind, some proto-songs are heavier(think of MESSUGGAH), some are ballad-like (think of OPETH or ANEKDOTEN), some are closer to Modern Prog (OCEANSIZE, PERFECT CIRCLE, new PORCUPINE TREE etc)...

Now if you had vocals to go with the song it would be amazing! Reminds me of tool but it isn't ripoff-y at all.
 
 
P.S. get a singer, write an album and I'll buy it   Thumbs%20Up

It looks great, leave it! I don't know how to call it as this theme is neither KROBAK's nor FUNERAL OF THE SUN's one...
